Wow, people are calling this an awesome movie. I guess you can make anything and some people are bound to like it. But Linda Fiorentino was watchable.

Anyway, I have a simple method, most of the time if the film is fun it gets 10 stars, and if it's not it gets 1.

In Beyond the Law we pretty much see Sheen walking through the movie...as the star...while everyone else around him acts. And this includes the action that he also just kind of walks his way through right until the end where he walks into a room and everyone claps because they can finally end the nightmare and move on to other things in their lives.

I'm pretty sure Sheen read the script and thought "Paycheck."
